GOLF The Best Putting Instruction Book Ever! Hardcover – October 26, 2010

2-3 chapters have useful information. The rest of the book requires that one have direct access to teaching pros, short game facility, and club makers/manufacturers. In that case you wouldn’t need this book. Highly over rated.

After taking many years off from golf, I finally got the "bug" again! I had my class reunion a few months ago and really didn't want to stink at playing with my classmates! Lol.... I'm surprised by how much I've enjoyed golfing! This book is truly helping me! In every sport there are more details than you can imagine! It's like the saying. .......if it was easy, everyone could do it! The buyer left a very nice letter and beautiful book mark! I haven't read all the book yet, but it makes me want look forward to getting on the greens! Especially since my husband is a great golfer. (He's modest) that's why I love him so much! This book is a must have! My husband always says......"if you can putt, that's half the game! It's definitely important! :)

I received the book I ordered really quickly, it was in first-class condition, and I've been pouring over the book every day since like a kid with a prized birthday present. Well done Amazon!!

Putting was the strong point of my golf game but in my older years I developed the yips and cured them instantly by going to the belly and long putter. This book covers all aspects of putters and putting styles. It helped me find the style that I felt comfortable using the long putter. Unfortunately for me and others who anchor the belly and long putter to their body, the USGA has outlawed this technique after January 1, 2016. At that point I will have to make a decision on using another technique or just continue on anchoring the putter in "friendly games" as my days of competing in sanctioned golf events are over. If I do go back to a non anchored method this book will come in handy again.

Bought for my husband and he loves the book. Entire book has highlights

This is a beautiful book. The two stars of mine are consisted of its photos and editing. Besides of its beauty, this book is not so practical. If you want to learn arc putting method, you should read 'The Short Way to Lower Scoring' by Paul Runyan. It's the best. I enjoyed reading a few sections such as putter fitting, balance for a stroke and a chapter on 'match your stroke to your putter.'

GREAT ITEM

Got the book in less than 24 hours. Seemed like an excellent book for anyone who wants to improve their putting skills, unfortunately the dvd didn’t come along with the book. Sadly had to return the book back.

A very concise analysis into the most important part of the golf game. Some of the information just shows how difficult this wonderful game really is.
